[hometext] => It is said we are captives to fate. I say who gives a damn and crack open a cold one 👍
[bodytext] => It"s finally my turn at bat I fix the pants and tug the hat And step right up beside the plate The ball held in the hand of fate Whose awesome speed and sneaky curve Can cause the strong to loose their nerve But I do not a muscle twitch As I await his stealthy pitch He winds and now the ball does fly I swing! With a sizzle it passes by The catcher laughs, my head is numb The umpire smiles and says "strike one" I dig the cleats and give a glare Once more the ball is in the air I swing!! It weaves and slides right through The umpire smiles and says "strike two" Again he hurls that devils sphere And as I see it drawing near With mighty force I set bat free!!!! The umpire smiles and says "strike three" No moral here or hidden meaning On this, the game of life"s convening I"m happy with the little things Like hotdogs, beer, and three good swings L.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
